On January 14, the Turkish Defense Ministry announced that the Turkish military conducted airstrikes in northern Iraq and northern Syria, destroying 24 Kurdish militant targets and “neutralizing” many of them.
The ministry stated that the operations were carried out in northern Syria, and in the Matina, Hakurk, Kari, Asos, and Qandil regions of northern Iraq.
